Here's the deal, Impact Church cares about one thing more than anything else, Jesus Christ. Impact Church is a family of individuals that have found hope in Jesus, and simply want as many people as possible to experience that exact same freedom. We want to be a church for you!

Impact Church was launched in 2013. Our roots are in the Church of God Movement out of Anderson, IN. The Church of God (Anderson) is group that loves Jesus and believes Christian should not be divided by our differences but unified by our common faith in Jesus. That same welcoming spirit remains among the church today. https://www.jesusisthesubject.org/

Now for our church, what happened was that we were dying and so we began a new service during the Sunday School hour called C.S.I. (CONNECT, SERVE, IMPACT) Before long we were blessed with our worship leaders, Jamie and Lara Strawther. Not to long after that, we had a band and then God begin to move. We started with 15 people and before we knew it we were buying more chairs. Now our gym has been transformed into an amazing worship center. Our vision is to impact the current culture for Jesus! Our Mission is to lead people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ by Connecting, Serving, Impacting, Giving and Growing.

Our Vision for this year is the word: "MOVE!" We need a move and we need to move. That's our prayer for this year. We want God to move like never before and also that we will be willing to move when he calls us to!

Our vision is to be a church that impacts the current culture for Jesus!

MEMBERSHIP/OWNERSHIP

When you accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior then you are a member of this church.

CHRISTIANS ARE CALLED TO BE ONE

We believe that God calls all followers of Christ to live in unity and peace, regardless of who they are or the church they attend (Gal 3:28). While we may not agree on everything, we can rally around our subject, Jesus.

THE BIBLE

The Bible is our rule of faith. We believe the Bible is the foundation for instruction in the Christian life. Paul said, “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It tells the story of Jesus- the greatest story ever told. It tells of men and women who found life at its highest and also experienced life at its most dreadful depths. The Bible is our guide for our life and it will always lead us in the right direction. So we must read it but also apply it!

JESUS

There is one Lord, who is God’s Son Jesus Christ, over the church. Christ is the church’s ultimate authority on all matters (Acts 2:36).

MAKING DISCIPLES

Each of us is called to fulfill Matthew 28:18–20, making fully devoted followers of Christ—disciples—who will then teach others to follow Christ.

LOVING GOD AND OUR NEIGHBORS

We are called to fulfill Matthew 22:37–39, not only loving God with our entire being, but also loving all that he loves.

HOLY SPIRIT

God’s Spirit equips believers with unique gifts that enable us to carry out the mission of Christ in the world. At the same time, the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control in every believer (Galatians 5:22–23), which demonstrate the Spirit’s presence within us.

STEWARDSHIP 

Since God is the source of life, all of life is to be used for the honor, glory, and service of God (Psalm 24:1).Stewardship is the responsible use of all of our resources, recognizing that all good gifts come from God.

COMMUNION

We have communion on the last Sunday of every month. It is a time to give thanks and remember what Jesus did for us on the cross. (1 Corinthians 10:16) The bread and cup are symbolic of the grace in the life of a follower of Christ.

BAPTISM

Baptism by immersion (or we like to say dunking) is a first step for a new Christ follower. Jesus was baptized so we go by his example. Baptism says the old me is gone and the new me is here.

INFANT DEDICATION

This is really for the parents saying they will do their best to raise their child in a loving Christian home to the best of their ability. This is not an act of baptism for the child.

SOCIAL VIEWS

We believe God’s word is the ultimate authority on our Church, related policies and personal conduct. As Christians, our beliefs must be consistent with His teaching. We believe that God created each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image of God. Rejection of one’s biological gender is a rejection of the image of God within that person. We believe the term “marriage” has only one meaning and is sanctioned by God, which joins one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as defined in Scripture. We believe that sexual immorality is any sexual activity outside of marriage. We do believe that every person should be afforded compassion, love, kindness, respect and dignity. We oppose discrimination based on race, age, sex and nationality. We want to be a church for all people! We support the sanctity of all human life from the moment of conception to natural death. We believe all people from every walk of life are in need of God’s truth and must be made welcome to come fellowship and grow with us as we evaluate our lives together.
